What's a Wreck?

A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.

Sometimes we just have to sit down, reflect, and finally ask ourselves, "Who the heck is this guy, and why am I Facebook friends with him?"

Now, I can't tell you EXACTLY who to unfriend, because I don't know the name of the person who decided stretch leggings are not "business appropriate attire." Still, I can offer you a few general guidelines.

The Over-Sharer

We also don't need to see that weird growth thing on your elbow, Tom.

The Drunk Serial Poster

Nothing says "Mistakes were made last night" quite like a 4AM photo dump of blurry faces, fire hydrants, and the bait-and-tackle aisle at Wal-Mart.

The Vague-Booker

It's mysterious and dramatic and they can't tell you ANYTHING until you give them lots and lots of attention.

The Racist

Sadly I have even more accurate cakes for this, but I'm not posting them. You're welcome.

The first one is confusing! I think it's about snip-- you know, but what were they driving at? The person doesn't FORGET that, you know...! THEY aren't GONE! There IS a vas deferens between one and ...forget it.Maybe the second one was trying to say "make like a tree, and leave"??And, the FOURTH!!? Creepy , but "technically" maybe obscure enough to.....no..Nope....no way. These are professionals....?¿=^o.O^=
